What Families Think

Most reviewers describe Balfour Central Park as an attentive, upscale community with strong dining, active programming, and staff who build lasting relationships with families over multiple years. A significant minority, however, report serious lapses in day-to-day care—especially for residents with dementia—including hygiene neglect, recurring UTIs, and slow staff response, alongside complaints about turnover and billing after a resident's death.

The Good

  • Staff frequently praised as attentive and responsive
  • Long-term residents (2+ years) report consistent, improving care
  • Chef-prepared meals repeatedly called excellent and varied
  • Robust seven-day-a-week activities and life enrichment programming
  • Onsite physical therapy partnership praised by families
  • Clean, upscale, hotel-like physical environment

The Bad

  • Several reports of hygiene neglect and unclean rooms in memory care
  • Multiple mentions of high staff turnover affecting consistency of care
  • One report of repeated UTIs and delayed care leading to hospitalization
  • One report of billing dispute continuing after a resident's death

When my Dad fell skiing on Christmas 2024 I had been doing some research on some places that had both assisted living and memory care since it looked like he would eventualy need it. The fall excelerated everything and I needed a place for my Mom and Dad in a hurry. Tom and the staff at Belfour Central Park were so helpful and amazing durring a really tough time. They were also amazing when it came time for my parents to find other living situattions as well. I cant say enough good things about the Belfour Central Park, Thank you, Tom!

Truly caring people who know how to care for their residents. My mother has been at Balfour for over two years and they have adjusted her care as she has changed and lost her own capacities. I trust them, which is not an easy thing in this arena.
